Allow to transfer (checkin&checkout at once) and to change status while checking in/out

[mamayer]

Expected Behavior (or desired behavior if a feature request)

(This might be seen as multiple requests at once, but they are closely related to each other)

I'd like to have a "transfer"-button with which I can

• change the location from "Room A" to "Stock in main-building" (yes, we have multiple stocks)
• change the status from "Ready to use" [deployable] to "Maintenance" [not deployable]
• while changing the check-in-status from "checked out" to "checked in" because it's moving into the stock

another example would be

• change the location from "User A" to "User B"
• while not changing the check-in-status - it stays "checked out"

or

• change the location from "User A" to "Trash dump"
• change the status from "Ready to use" [deployable] to "Scrap" [archived]
• while changing the check-in-status from "checked out" to "checked in" because it's moving away from the user

In short I'd like to freely change locations and statusses, while moving to stock-locations in considered being a "check in" and moving out of stock-locations is a "check out".

If we are not supposed to use SnipeIT with multiple stocks, that's ok. Than I still request an option to change the location/user from one to another without checking in. Eg. "transfer monitor 123 from Sam to Max".

Actual Behavior

If we take an asset from one user/location and give it to an other, we always have to check it in and out again, which is quite complicated. It's not possible to move an asset in one step without checking in.

When creating assets we can't keep track in which stock the asset is, because providing a location/user on asset creation will immediately check the asset out - even if it's in a stock.

We can't change the current location of checked-in assets as SnipeIT seems to work with one stock only and everything "checked in" is supposed to be in the one-and-only stock.

Yes, if it was possible for ones that manage assets to transfer an asset to another company via an action dropdown option that included a field for the reason for transfer as well as would send a notification to the receiving company manager that would be awesome!

It's still relevant and needed.

This would be an amazing feature

We also sometimes find users transferring goods from one person to the next without passing through the "stock".
At that time we check in and check out again, which is a bit cumbersome.
It is not too bad, and the tool is awesome. We just have to do it that often, that it would really save on time a lot to do it in a single go.

Possibly it could be adding a bullet point that dynamically adds the fields for doing a recheck-out?
